One of the most mysterious cases in British history will be decoded, if ...
In the Middle Ages, the British royal family had a lot of bloody power struggles with extremely mysterious conspiracy, but we still don't know exactly how things are now.
Human history not only has war between nations, but also many bloody pursuits within the royal family.
For a country with a long history of royalty like Britain, of course is no exception. In which there are very mysterious cases that until now we still do not know the origin of the cause, such as the murder named "Prince in the tower" related to King Richard III for example.
The case is too many hypotheses
The story takes place in the late 15th century. After King Edward IV died suddenly in 1483, his 12-year-old son, Edward V succeeded. However, Edward V's reign lasted only 2 months, then was robbed by Richard III.
Edward V and his younger brother, Duke of Richard, were then imprisoned in the Tower of London. And since then, no one has seen them anymore.
King Edward V and Richard - the Duke of York in the London Tower by Paul Delaroche.
Countless people - from historians to the genius of Shakespeare - believe that Richard III has murdered both boys, in anticipation of retaliation later. However, many experts still believe that things are not so simple. To know exactly, the only way is to find the remains of two short-lived princes.
According to the story, the bodies of the two princes were originally buried outside the tower, then transferred to the remains of the Westminster monastery two centuries later, and stored today.
However, there are many hypotheses about the location that are likely to bury them, causing pain for historians. If these hypotheses are true, whose two bones are at Westminster Abbey?
The famous Tower of London.
One of the hypotheses involves a man named Perkin Warbeck. Warbeck, who was pretending to be Duke Richard, was one of the two princes locked in the tower. However, Warbeck was overturned afterwards. He was hanged, and buried in an anonymous grave in London.
But what did Warbeck say truthfully? What if it was Duke Richard? More and more similar hypotheses are offered, which no one can answer.
Hoping to find the answer has come, however .
And that hope is outlined in the book "Prince in the Tower " published by Dr. John Ashdown-Hill from the University of Essex, which involves a genetic breakthrough that will help answer questions. long time of historians.
Specifically, according to Ashdown-Hill, we have the descendants of the two princes, Elizabeth Roberts - an English opera singer. The doctor said that if two bones at Wstminster Abbey have DNA matching Roberts, the main culprit is King Richard III. Simply because two skeletons were found right next to London Tower, and even during the reign of the king nearby.
Many people believe that Richard III has murdered both boys, in case of retaliation later.
But if it doesn't match, it is possible that the two princes have died at another time, not the time Richard III lived there. Not even the culprit is Richard III.
Everything seemed to be very smooth, but no! Westminster Abbey refused to allow any tests to be performed on two skeletons. All tests, even the most advanced, are not accepted.
That's it! When we imagine that the six-century mystery has been answered, every door has closed with just a refusal. Also understand them, because these 2 skeletons have a great historical value, so all methods that are at risk of invasion are not approved.
